What is Cervical Disc Disease?

This disease is commonly known as stiff neck and is a common reason for pain in the neck. Due to some injury, the degeneration may be caused in the cervical disc. With the passage of time the degeneration increases and results in severe pain and stiffness in the neck. Neck pain is one of the main symptoms of cervical disc disease. In general, the person who is suffering from this problem feels pain in the neck and his or her neck becomes inflexible. Pain that you feel as a result of cervical disc disease might be inflammatory, which is due to the release of some chemicals which swell nerve endings in the annulus fibrosis.

Anti-seizure drugs: This group of medications includes gabapentin (Neurontin, Gralise, Horizant), and pregabalin (Lyrica). They are used on patients suffering from the pain of damaged nerves.
Narcotics: A number of pain killers like hydrocodone (Vicodin, Lortab, others) can work to provide immediate relief. Similarly, oxycodone (Percocet, Roxicet, others) may also be used for the same purpose.
